Bath re-enamelling in Grassendale, done in place

Many of the baths we re-enamel are period roll-tops, which would be difficult and expensive to replace. Doing them in place keeps an original feature. Whether it’s an outdated colour you’d like to change and worn patches where water runs and sits, we can normally put it right, whatever the material.

The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there’s a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

Before and after: an old basin refinished to bright white

Can I fix it myself?

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.

A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.

Do you need bath re-enamelling in Grassendale?

In hard water areas, limescale and the cleaning it needs wear enamel faster, and gritty cleaners are the worst culprits.

If you can see any of these, send us a photo:

  • A dull, rough surface that will not come clean
  • Stains that will not shift
  • A period or roll-top bath worth keeping
  • Thin, worn enamel in places

Our hiring checklist

Honest limits

We will not take on work that won’t last, so here’s what a repair can’t put right:

  • Damage hidden under a previous coating, until it’s stripped back
  • A cast iron or steel bath that’s cracked right through
  • A poorly supported acrylic bath, until it’s firmed up

If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think before booking.

What we work on

  • Victorian roll-tops
  • Basins & shower trays
  • Acrylic baths
  • Pressed steel baths
  • Cast iron baths

How it works

Your technician turns up at the time we agreed with you, introduces themselves and looks over the damage before anything else. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before any work starts. The work itself takes a full day, and the room is left clean and tidy.

  1. We check the bath and agree the finish with you.
  2. Taps, tiles and the floor are masked off.
  3. The bath is degreased, repaired and keyed.
  4. We apply the primer and then the finish coats.
  5. The masking comes off, we tidy up and tell you when it can be used.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible

How to get a price

Send us a picture of the damage and one of the whole item, with your L19 postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.

Related advice

What affects the price in Grassendale

Resurfacing from £350. There is no area surcharge for Grassendale. What changes the price is:

  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • The colour and finish to match
  • The material
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear

It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send pictures and you will get a fixed figure.

Getting a price from photos

You can usually get a fixed price without us visiting. To help us price it:

  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • Details of any past repairs

A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath, include your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.

Why repair rather than replace?

A new bath means a plumber, lifting out the old bath, re-tiling or making good the walls and days without a bathroom. Resurfacing gives the bath a new finish with the bath left where it is. Prices start from £350. The price depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed quote from your pictures, so you know the cost before you book.
